What is GPS Tracking?

GPS tracking in the U.S. domestic truckload shipping industry refers to the application of this technology to monitor and track the real-time location and movement of trucks and their cargo throughout the transportation process. It plays a crucial role in enhancing the efficiency, safety, and transparency of truckload shipping operations. 

By using GPS-enabled services, carriers are providing valuable insights and actionable data to shippers, other carriers, carriers, and major stakeholders in the supply chain. 

When choosing a trucking company or Third party logistics provider for your shipping needs, it’s important to ask about their tracking abilities. A truck that can be tracked via GPS provides real-time information into a load’s movement. This helps improve the next stage of the supply chain and improves overall security.
